Overview

Thank-you for purchasing this MAX-THRUST Ryan STA radio controlled model aircraft.
The Ryan STA offers a stunning combination of terrific looks and sensational flight
performance. Manufactured from “EPOFLEXY” it is extremely robust, however, in the
event of a “less than perfect” arrival, we supply a range of spares to get you flying again in
the shortest time. It is capable of a wide range of aerobatic manoeuvres to thrill the
experienced pilot, but with reduced control throws it provides a solid and predictable flight
performance, perfect for the sports flyer. We are certain you will enjoy your new model,
please take the time to read this manual thoroughly and understand its contents completely
